Chapter 267 Teasing
Liu Erlong shook his head helplessly.
"You're always so wasteful. It's only because I, Teacher Erlong, have a good foundation that I won't be bankrupted by you sooner or later."
Lu Ming then put his arm around Liu Erlong's shoulder.
"Don't worry, teacher, I'll take care of you from now on."
Liu Erlong blushed slightly at his intimate gesture.
Although they are in a relationship, the two are not far apart in age, and their daily interactions have long surpassed those of an ordinary master and disciple.
She playfully slapped Lu Ming's hand away.
"You have no manners! Go change your clothes right now!"
Several girls chattered as they ran into the room to change their clothes.
Hu Liena blushed and followed her inside.
Only Lu Ming and Liu Erlong remained in the courtyard.
Liu Erlong poured a glass of fruit wine and handed it to Lu Ming.
"What are your plans regarding Tang San?"
When Tang San was mentioned, a hint of disgust flashed in Liu Erlong's eyes.
She used to think that Yu Xiaogang's apprentice was a genius.
But after witnessing Tang San's hypocritical and vicious methods, she completely lost faith in the master and disciple duo.
Especially that Yu Xiaogang, who actually wanted to come to Blue Tyrant Academy to freeload.
She had him thrown out immediately.
Lu Ming took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"It's just a stray dog with a broken spine; it can't cause any trouble."
"If he dares to do anything underhanded that could lead to his death."
"Next time, I won't just break his ribs."
Liu Erlong nodded.
"Just know what you're doing. Whatever you do, your teacher will support you."
Lu Ming looked at the woman in front of him who was thinking of him wholeheartedly.
A warm feeling welled up in my heart.
He put down his wine glass and suddenly leaned close to Liu Erlong's ear.
"Teacher, tonight I'd like to hear you tell me a joke about the great theoretical masters, is that alright?"
Liu Erlong felt weak all over from the hot breath he exhaled.
She pinched Lu Ming's cheek in an annoyed tone.
"You brat, you dare to flirt with a teacher. Wait till you beat me!"
Lu Ming grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
"Alright, let's have a good spar tonight."
Liu Erlong felt a tightness in her chest from the impact.
He was about to speak.
The room door was pushed open.
The girls, now dressed in clean long dresses, filed out.
Shui Yue'er was the first to rush over, squeezing directly between Lu Ming and Liu Erlong.
"Brother Lu Ming, what are you whispering to Teacher Erlong?"
Taking the opportunity, Liu Erlong broke free from Lu Ming's embrace and tidied her slightly disheveled hair.
"He didn't say anything. Come and eat!"
Everyone sat around the stone table.
Ning Rongrong took the seat to Lu Ming's left.
Zhu Zhuqing sat down quietly on the right.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu immediately moved a stool and sat directly opposite Lu Ming.
The Shui sisters, Dugu Yan, and Hu Liena could only sit on either side.
Looking at this group of beautiful women.
Lu Ming felt that life after transmigrating was indeed much more exciting than his previous life.
"Lu Ming, my father said that when we return to the Heaven Dou Empire, he would like to invite you to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as a guest."
Ning Rongrong said casually while eating pastries.
"You absolutely must go. I've told Father, Grandpa Sword, and Grandpa Bone everything about you."
"They're very curious about you."
Lu Ming picked up his wine glass.
"Of course I'll go. I've long wanted to see the treasure trove of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes.
"You money-grubber! If you go, I'll give you all my secret stash of money!"
Dugu Yan gave a disdainful snort.
"What's so great about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School? Brother Lu Ming, my grandfather's Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye is a real treasure land."
"If you like it, I'll have Grandpa give you the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!"
Ning Rongrong slammed her hand on the table and stood up.
"Dugu Yan, are you deliberately picking a fight?!"
Dugu Yan glared back defiantly.
"What, so what if you're rich? What Brother Lu Ming needs right now is a magical herb to boost his strength!"
The two young ladies looked like they were about to start arguing again.
Lu Ming reached out and pressed Ning Rongrong's head down, pushing her back into her seat.
"Alright, stop arguing."
"No matter whose treasure it is, if I, Lu Ming, take a liking to it, it is mine."
An extremely domineering statement.
But the girls present all took it for granted.
Zhu Zhuqing cut a piece of apple, skewered it with a silver skewer, and offered it to Lu Ming's mouth.
"No matter where you go, I will follow you."
As always, direct and firm.
Lu Ming took a bite of the apple and then patted Zhu Zhuqing's head.
The night breeze was cool, dispersing the heat from the hot spring pool.
The atmosphere at the stone table grew increasingly harmonious.
Even Hu Liena was pulled by Shui Yue'er to drink a few glasses of fruit wine, and a charming blush appeared on her face.
Lu Ming leaned back in his chair.
Looking at the starry sky and listening to the girls' cheerful laughter.
My fingers tapped lightly on the table.
The chat group also continuously provided him with all sorts of good things.
He had the Pope of the Spirit Hall under his control.
He trampled Shrek's bunch of good-for-nothings under his feet.
The world of Douluo Continent will eventually have to revolve according to the rules of Emperor Lu Tian.
The night breeze gradually subsided.
The fruit wine on the stone table was also empty.
Several girls sat around in the courtyard, chatting idly, but their eyes kept glancing at Lu Ming.
Lu Ming leaned back in the large armchair.
His gaze swept over the group of stunningly beautiful girls with different appearances in front of him.
"It's getting late."
"Everyone, please choose a room and go rest."
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong immediately jumped up from her chair.
She ran straight to Lu Ming and grabbed his left arm.
"I want to sleep in the same room as you!"
Xiao Wu took one look and stopped eating the pastries on the table.
She rushed over and grabbed Lu Ming's right arm tightly.
"No! Rongrong is a restless sleeper, I have to protect Brother Lu Ming!"
The two girls stared at each other, neither willing to let go.
Shuiyue watched from the side, her lips pursed in disapproval.
She was about to join in when her older sister, Shui Bing'er, grabbed her wrist.
Shui Bing'er blushed and shook her head, signaling her younger sister to stop fooling around.
Lu Ming was somewhat helpless as Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu shook him around.
He withdrew his hands and flicked each of the two girls' foreheads.
"Stop fooling around."
"You two go find your own rooms to sleep."
Ning Rongrong covered her forehead, her face full of grievance.
Are you sleeping alone tonight?
Lu Ming stood up, his gaze sweeping over everyone and landing directly on Liu Erlong, who was tidying up the stone table.
Didn't I just say that?
"I'm going to have a good discussion with the teacher tonight."
Liu Erlong paused in his work of clearing the dishes.
A blush instantly spread across her mature and beautiful face.
She rolled her eyes at Lu Ming, annoyed.
"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting in front of so many people!"
Lu Ming walked over without caring.
He naturally reached out and put his arm around Liu Erlong's slender and soft waist.
"How is that considered nonsense?"
"Isn't it normal for students to ask teachers questions?"
Liu Erlong froze, nearly dropping the plate in his hand.
The warm touch on her waist made her heart skip a beat.
She tried to break free, but found that Lu Ming's arms were as strong as iron clamps, and she couldn't push them away at all.
The other girls all fell silent when they saw this.
Ning Rongrong puffed out her cheeks, feeling resentful but not daring to challenge Liu Erlong's authority.
After all, Liu Erlong is the dean of Blue Tyrant Academy.
Zhu Zhuqing silently stood up and walked to the guest room next door without saying a word.
Hu Liena gave Lu Ming a deep look, then lowered her head and quickly left the courtyard.
In no time, only Lu Ming and Liu Erlong remained in the courtyard.
Lu Ming gently stroked Liu Erlong's waist with his fingers.
"Teacher, shall we go back to our room?"
Liu Erlong was completely speechless.
She placed the bowls and plates heavily on the stone table and turned to walk towards the main house.
"Come in!"
Lu Ming followed slowly behind, his hands in his pockets.
A faint scent of incense wafted through the room.
Liu Erlong sat on the edge of the bed, her chest still rising and falling slightly.
Lu Ming closed the door behind him and sat down next to her.
The two were standing very close together.
Lu Ming could even smell the unique fragrance of a mature woman emanating from Liu Erlong.
"You're getting more and more outrageous these days."
Liu Erlong turned her head away, not daring to look Lu Ming in the eye.
Lu Ming chuckled and reached out to lift a strand of Liu Erlong's long hair.
Don't you like it?
Liu Erlong bit her lip and did not answer.
Looking at the boy who had grown into a young man, she felt a mix of emotions.
The ordinary child she took in back then has now become a monster known throughout the continent.
He even manipulated the Pope of the Spirit Hall.
"You gave away those three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones today, don't you really feel bad about it?"
Liu Erlong changed the subject.
Lu Ming leaned against the bedpost, pulled Liu Erlong's hand over, and played with it in his own palm.
"Just a few broken bones."
"If I'm happy, what's wrong with giving them the entire Spirit Hall?"
Liu Erlong was stunned by his arrogant words.
Looking at Lu Ming's confident profile, her heart began to race.
Lu Ming rolled over and rested his head on Liu Erlong's lap.
I'm tired.
"Teacher, please massage my head."
Liu Erlong looked at the boy lying on her lap, and her eyes softened completely.
She raised her hands and gently massaged Lu Ming's temples.
"Is the force okay?"
Lu Ming closed his eyes and let out a comfortable hum.
"good."
"From now on, this will be the teacher's daily task."
Liu Erlong gently punched his shoulder.
"Dream on, you really think I'm your maid?"
Although she said that, her hands didn't stop moving.
As night deepened, only the soft breathing of the two people remained inside the room.
The atmosphere was extremely ambiguous.
The morning sunlight streamed into the room through the window.
Lu Ming opened his eyes.
He felt a tightness in his chest.
Looking down, he saw that Zhu Zhuqing had somehow gotten into his bed.
She curled up in his arms like a real cat.
That cool and aloof face now appeared incredibly serene.
The tight leather jacket accentuated her enviable curves perfectly because of her sleeping posture.
Lu Ming did not move.
He quietly admired the spring scenery before him.
His hand naturally rested on Zhu Zhuqing's slender waist.
Just then, a soft footstep sound came from outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, the door was quietly pushed open a crack.
Shuiyue peeked half her head in.
I spotted the two people on the bed at a glance.
Instead of avoiding her, she swaggered in carrying a plate.
"Brother Lu Ming, breakfast is ready!"
Shuiyue'er's voice was clear and resonant.
Zhu Zhuqing was instantly awakened.
She suddenly opened her eyes and found herself tightly hugging Lu Ming.
The usually aloof young woman immediately blushed.
She quickly let go of his hand and sat up in bed.
"I...I'm going to wash up."
Zhu Zhuqing didn't even dare to look at Lu Ming, and ran out with her head down.
Shui Yue'er stepped aside to make way, watching with a grin as Zhu Zhuqing fled in disarray.
She then went to the bedside and placed the plate on the bedside table.
"Brother Lu Ming, Sister Zhu Qing is too shy."
"Yue'er is the best. Yue'er serves you breakfast."
Shuiyue wore a sky-blue short skirt today.
She deliberately bent down and picked up a bowl of steaming hot meat porridge.
Large swathes of her snow-white skin were directly exposed to Lu Ming's view.
Lu Ming sat up and leaned against the headboard.
Instead of looking away, he openly admired it.
"You little rascal, trying to seduce me so early in the morning."
Shuiyue scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it gently, and brought it to Lu Ming's lips.
"There's no seduction involved. Yue'er genuinely wants to take care of you."
Lu Ming opened his mouth and drank the porridge.
The taste is indeed quite good.
Shui Bing'er also walked to the door at this moment.
Seeing her younger sister's eager and attentive manner, she was so anxious that she stomped her feet.
"Moon! Come out quickly, don't disturb Lu Ming's rest!"
Shuiyue turned around and made a face.
"Sister, you're too conservative. If you came in too, Brother Lu Ming would be even happier."
Shui Bing'er blushed deeply, wishing she could disappear into the ground.
Looking at the two sisters with such different personalities, Lu Ming was in a great mood.
He swallowed the porridge in his mouth, then focused a wisp of his mind on activating the chat group in his sea of consciousness.
As the group owner, Lu Ming now holds absolute power of life and death.
The interface in the group also changed because of his permissions.
[Lu Tiandi]: Good morning.
[Lu Tiandi]: Starting today, I will share an interesting daily story every day, and the group admin will issue rewards as appropriate.
The moment the message was sent, the group chat exploded.
[Little Witch]: Me first! Me first!
[Little Witch]: Lu Ming is a big bad guy! He chased us all away last night and sneaked into Teacher Erlong's room!
[Liu Erlong]: Ning Rongrong! Your physical training today is doubled!
[The cutest bunny]: Rongrong is right! And this morning, Shuiyue even took breakfast to Brother Luming's room to curry favor! Sister Zhuqing even secretly went there last night!
[My cat is white and big]: Xiao Wu... don't talk nonsense.
[Wanting a sweet romance]: Sister Zhuqing is just being stubborn. I saw it all; you're practically clinging to Brother Luming!
The messages in the group chat were scrolling by very quickly.
It was all these girls revealing each other's shortcomings.
Lu Ming looked at these messages and gently tapped his finger in his mind.
